Abstract: Lecture I - Introduction to Frobenius manifolds

The aim of the course is to give a self-contained introduction to the analytic theory of Frobenius manifolds, ordinary differential equations with rational coefficients in complex domains, and their isomonodromic deformations. Applications to enumerative geometry will also be discussed. In the final part of the mini-course, more recent results in this research area will be presented.

The course will consist of 5 lectures, which will be shown live on YouTube, at the url shown below (where the lectures will stay available for a later view).
